Python design project

[Josh Bloom]

Hi Solrick,

This sounds like some interesting stuff. I'd love to discuss it some more
with you and maybe work with you on it.

Some things to think about:

   1. Rules for Font interactions. What happens when fonts 'hit' each
   other, or 'live' long enough to reproduce andmutate maybe?
   2. What parts of the fonts can change. height, width, scale, kerning,
   serifs, color, transparency, etc
   3. Python may not be the best environment for this application. Flash
   might be alot faster to get something going in as its designed for animating
   vectors and has a solid programming language behind it to write in your
   rules logic.

Best,
Josh
